Unless I'm missing a setting in the driver that would currently remedy this.
I hope to get to it this weekend. The only question is whether an option is needed or whether it should happen no matter what.

Right now, if you set the "Upload cover" option, it will replace the covers that have been generated on the device for a book when you resend book. There will be differences in the covers displayed because the device generates them from the first page of the book but calibre is using whatever cover it has in the metadata and resizing it.
